Complete Pipe Solutions In The North West
A range of pipe and joint solutions from Durapipe UK have been specified to cater for new build office and laboratory space in the North West.
The device controls the electrofusion process, providing installers with all the information they need to ensure the joints have been properly made.
It self tests when switched on, counts down the remaining fusion time and even automatically adjusts the time needed according to varying ambient conditions.
It then lets the user know when the process has been completed.
Des Dolan, Brand Manager for Vulcathene said: "We are always looking for ways to make it easier for installers to use our products, and the new hand-held Enfusion unit does exactly that".
"It is quick and simple to use and makes life easier for the installer on site".
"Vulcathene is a byword for safe chemical drainage in the building services industry, and this unit simply adds to the excellent quality it provides".
Vulcathene enfusion fittings are injection moulded with an integral resistance wire in the sockets.
The wire is electrically heated by means of the hand held enfusion unit resulting in fusion and bonding of the pipe to the fitting.
Vulcathene is a purpose-designed chemical drainage system that has been specified and installed in the laboratories of schools, universities, hospitals and research facilities worldwide for over 50 years.
